Philadelphia Flyers Ink Marc-Andre Bourdon to Entry-Level Contract

The Flyers have signed defenceman Marc-Andre Bourdon to a three-year entry-level contract on Friday, the terms of the contract were undisclosed as per team policy. However, according to CapGeek.com, his cap hit will be $712,500. Bourdon, 19, split time with Rouyn-Noranda Huskies and Rimouski Oceanic of the QMJHL last season. He combined for 18 goals and 42 assists for 60 points while racking up 112 penalty minutes. The 6'0", 215-pound defenceman will have to improve his skating ability, and learn to play better in his own end, before he gets his chance to prove himself at the NHL-level. Bourdon will be playing for the Adirondack Phantoms this season, unless he shows an awful lot during training camp. This article is also featured on 2 Minutes To Midnight Green
